TMNT Shredder in Hell Preview

[phillytmnt]

Hey,

I found a preview for Shredder in Hell#1. I apoligize if this has been posted already. It looks amazing! Wow!

https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/exclusive-preview-oroku-saki-enters-the-underworld-with-idws-tmnt-shredder-in-hell-1

[ProphetofGanja]

Damn, I'm fukkin stoked for this :eek:

[ChosenOne]

My first and most important take-away from this preview is that the Dragon Lord apparently has a counterpart of some sort. The plot thickens.

Damn, all the covers are so freaking gorgeous, but especially the one with 90's Shredder sitting on the throne! :o

And is that Bay!Shredder standing over the fallen Turtles in the last one? (I mean, even though they don't have noses...)

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Man, I love it when Mateus writes... this gonna be good. :tcool:

[CyberCubed]

I really hope this mini lives up to it's potential, it looks really good so far. Artwork is amazing and the story should be good.

[Redeemer]

Man, I love it when Mateus writes... this gonna be good. :tcool:

Yes he has greatly help and expanded the lore of TMNT with History of the Foot clan.

[Utrommaniac]

Oh boy, here we go :o !

"Dear dad, please take the dried out corpse of a man I've most definitely had children with hundreds of years ago for you to occupy"
Does the spirit realm have Freudian Psychology?

So! Who's the dude with the green? Tatsuo Takeshi? The Dragon Lord? Who the flip is the Dragon Lord's "counterpart"??? The Phoenix maybe?

Saki says he's the voice whispering in the back of his head all his life. The voice speaks as if they were the same person. So my guess is that it is Takeshi. Their spirits were separated as Saki died, if that makes any sense? That's my theory anyway.

[Panda_Kahn_fan]

I wonder if this miniseries will see shredder take his place as a warlord of hell, and have the dragon lord return in his headless body.

[swing_kinker]

Santo was saying a while back that there's going to be a lot of Akira influence in this one....I'm hyped.

[Utrommaniac]

Oh god, I'm so glad this was released back to back with the 20/20 issue, because that left a bitter taste in my mouth for some of the reasons I listed in that thread.


But this first issue alone is going to get Secret History a run for its money. Saki's beginning of an existential crisis, the Savate zombies and other people he killed, whatever that multi-eyed nightmare fuel is, what I'm guessing is going to be the closest thing the "Dark Turtles".

Also, Rat Splinter just riding around on his shoulder and helping him out. And that one page with Shen.


It's going as I kind of thought it would, with Saki realizing how little control he's had over his own life while he was alive and trying to take back what he never had to begin with.

Of course there's no need to talk about how amazing the art was. But this particular time...Splinter looked so silky. "Let me pet" silky. It was nice to see Splinter being an actual source of wisdom and being truly helpful. Maybe that's why he's kind of gone off the rails in the physical realm? Spiritually, he's not all there. The rest of it is back down to actual rat form hanging out with Saki like they're Dante and Virgil. (...Oh, this is just going to be some kind of Dante's Inferno: TMNT Edition, isn't it???)


I'm already giddy to see what's next, because that was quite the note to end on!

It seems the Shredder in hell mini-series would tie in with the main series.

[Ninjinister]

So is the multi-eyed, tentacled thing the Necro Monster from The Darkness Within?

Krang in the back though :lol: .

I won't be disappointed if Saki doesn't end up "babysitting" Krang for an issue or two, but that would still be interesting to see.

Saki: General? How are you in this place? It's only for the...

Krang: For the dead, Saki, yes. I'm well aware. As it happens, I was on trial for my, ahem, heroism in another dimension and was devoured by a mutant crocodile I'd tortured into insanity for decades.

Saki: (beat) I miss Feudal Japan.

Yeah, it's most likely going to be part of the overall 'City at War' arc.

[Utrommaniac]

Of course it's going to tie in?


All the minis do. When there isn't room in the main story to veer off for a backstory or side story.

Hah Shredder and kitsune are a bickering couple with relationship issues and krang as their child.

[neatoman]

Finally read it. What was the deal with the Shoggoth?

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

This was great. So much to unpack with Oroku Saki... his (unrequited?) love for Kitsune, the Dragon spirit/lord/god, Hamato Yoshi, that many-eyed monstrosity... also, Saki is more resistant against Splinter's advice than I would have expected! This won't end well. :tgrin:

I don't think I'm the first to guess this, but I'm betting that's the real Splinter in this vision/realm... after he dies in the real world (in an upcoming issue). That's my bet, anyway! Interesting to see where this goes.

[Weapons@theready]

I’m so upset that my LCS didn’t get this in today

Finally got it in today...so excited to finally read this. Mateus is killing it, and that last page with the Turtles was amazing. Can't wait to see the curves along the journey, but yeah this isn't going to end well.

Kitsune did call him beloved so it wasn't entirely unrequited on some leave but it seems her hatred for humanity outweighed it and spilinter from the future is an uncxepted theory.

[LUIS]

Bought it online, damn was it good, felt short though.

[martinitolove]

It was great! I suppose that the issue is happening in the past, immediately after Shredder was beheaded. The best essence of Splinter followed his friend Saki to the purgatory in order to guide him through hell to heaven. This is the reason for Splinter thinking less with his heart in the "real world" nowdays, becoming head of the foot clan, killing people, distancing himself from his sons. Once their journey is over the best essence will return to the body, Splinter will leave the foot clan and reunite with his sons. At the same time Shredder will be resurected. This will lead into the events of issue 100.

Splinter going to die soon would be a very cheap step for such amazing storytellers that are the IDW crew!

I still prefer the idea of a deceased Splinter guiding Saki. Death is, in no way, a cheap step, and if done well it can easily be one of the most powerful storytelling tools. The idea of Splinter getting redemption by guiding his old friend on the right path through the afterlife so he can save the world seems cool to me.

I'm thinking there also might be a possibility that Splinter's spirit sort of transcends time here as well, though I'm not going to ramble about that just yet.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

How in the world is that a cheap step?

To date, only TWO versions of TMNT have ever dared to do that: Mirage and, surprisingly, Nick 2012.

And Nick did it twice too. I actually loved the first death so much more because Shredder was like “F it...I don’t care if the Earth is destroyed”

[martinitolove]

And his second death was unneeded. You don't need a teacher to die in for four teenagers to grow up. Then you must change the name of the property - not "teenage mutant ninja turtles" anymore. I hope IDW keeps that in mind and don't kill Splinter!

Splinter's second death and the whole overmutated Shredder stuff was one of the worst moments of an amazing cartoon series.

One of the best things was Q, I mean Wyrm! :tgrin:

And I re-read Turtles in Time #4 - does anyone think that the executioner looked a lot like Tiger Claw?

They're teenagers, not children. Growing up is a part of being a teenager. Growing more independent and, most importantly, mature. The fact that they're growing up doesn't mean they're somehow no longer teenagers. No, showing more maturity shows that they've grown as characters and keeps the story from getting stagnant and is absolutely a key part of a story that prides itself on continuity. Though I'm not sure if that's what you said, or if it was that the turtles can grow up without their master dying, which I do agree with but I still don't agree with you on death being cheap.

With that in mind, death can also not only serve as an important tool to enhance the story of the turtles, it can also lead to a natural ending of Splinter's story as well. If done right, it can give the story a larger emotional stake and offer the character redemption and closure. Splinter is absolutely my favorite character but even then, if his death is pulled off right and if the story can go on without there being a hole in the place that he used to be in, then I'd love to see it happen. Just my opinion though!

[ChosenOne]

He sort of does, but I think he's a mutant walrus, not a tiger.

[oldmanwinters]

Yeah, that series "killed" Splinter off so many times, that when they finally offed him for good, I had already grown numb enough as to think: "better be for real, this time?"

[Redeemer]

I actually was shocked and liked the fact that they actually and permanently killed splinter off in the series. They had not done it in the previous cartoons.

[Zog The Magnificent]

I feel like that since the afterlife as depicted here seems to be a place outside of normal time, the Splinter there is indeed dead in the future. My guess is that his death involves Shredder in some way, which is why when asked he doged the question, but he died at peace with himself and has now been put into the afterlife to guide Shredder, which will eventually lead to the situation that results in Splinter's death, completing the circle. Or I could be completely wrong, who knows?

Also, regarding Splinter dying in the Nick cartoon, I thought it was pretty well handled. In my opinion the only real fakeout was the one at the end of Season 3, and we knew that one would be undone due to the whole world dying immediately after. It was just the set up to the whole "set right what once was wrong" plot. When his real death came along, I definitely felt the oomph it was supposed to have. Those are just my thoughts, anyways.

[martinitolove]

Forgot to point out we've got Meerdude or better Meerdudettes in this issue! One point more for IDW. Love you Mateus Santolouco!!!

[daggio]

I was thinking about all the spirits being transferred to other bodies since Shredder's soul/spirit is that of Takeshi Tatsuo. Honeycutt transferred his spirit into the SAL robot, Yoshi's and his four sons' spirits were transferred into a rat and four turtles suggestively cuz of machinations by Krang. Then you have Takeshi Tatsuo's spirit being transferred into a young Oroku Saki. Originally, I believed that had directly to do with Kitsune's supernatural abilities. Now while that may still be the case, I couldn't help but notice that all these previous spirit transfers seemed to have occurred in close proximity to Krang's involvement in whoever's stories is happening. We know of the whole situation of Honeycutt and Krang. Krang being present at the Hamato Clan's execution and his desire have "DNA & QNA" samples from them brings about the pretty plausible belief of what subsequently happened. The fact at the time of Tatsuo's death, Kitsune was allied with Krang just makes me wonder if a possibility exists that maybe the transfer of his soul into Saki may have been because of Krang's technology, maybe in connection with Kitsune's abilities.

[Utrommaniac]

In all of that, I just question how they managed to get those samples into those specific animals. Was it a separate batch of Ooze that Krang kept sitting around until necessary? And in that case, why couldn't have have put it together that the mutants trying to fight him just happened to be the same animals that were misplaced? All things considered, it shouldn't have been too much of a coincidence.

[Igglet]

What if Kitsune had more of a part in the creation of the Turtles than we previously believed?

[Utrommaniac]

Maybe?

I think it could be possible, since Kitsune did do some work for Krang for a while. Not entirely sure how interested she would have been in maintaining the spirits of a family that was basically Saki's enemies, and could have been a threat to her success of bringing back the Dragon Lord.


Which would probably have been her motivation for Leo's brainwashing. Less to be another pawn to Saki, and more to keep him out of her way.

Well that in the issue beyond 100 would deal with the the threat of the dragon and thus be the climax of the Pantheon story line probably alongside shredder's presumed return. Not sure what kitsune would do with Saki's headless corpse with her dad inside it unless he can heal it and probably be unstable.

I genuinely feel like Kitsune might be playing some 7D chess with our asses and she just pulled a Young Justice and went "All a part of my plan" when Saki died or something.

[daggio]

What if Kitsune had more of a part in the creation of the Turtles than we previously believed?

It could be, especially when I remember that Kitsune had sort of a smirk/smile on her face in #50 when shredder addressed her when he was about to die like everything was going to plan.

Or maybe the Rat King had more to do with it since in his first appearance he commented about everything in their lives had to do with him and his family. Plus, some of his comments made me believe that he would love to screw up Kitsune's plans.

[Toxin45]

Will we learn the history of the pantheon in Shredder in Hell?

[neatoman]

Will we learn the history of the pantheon in Shredder in Hell?

I sort of doubt it, we might find out more about Kitsune's manipulation of Shredder but I don't think the other member will be that important.

What is with prints

[Redeemer]

What is with prints

Basically is means that the issue sold out and they have to make another run of prints (2nd prints) It essentially means that the issue sold beyond expectations. It's a very good sign of health or popularity in terms of how well the mini series is doing.

The only other time this has happened for the IDW TMNT series was issue #1 and #44 that I know of.

More than that: https://tmnt-ninjaturtles.com/search/2nd+print

[Mayhem]

The interesting thing here is, with the solicitation code, they put in for the second print before issue #1 even released, so they must have had more orders for #1 initially than they had actually printed.

[oldmanwinters]

Heh, I realized today that I keep forgetting this mini-series is still ongoing.

It doesn't help that we also have the ongoing, the Batman III mini, the Image-era Color Classics, and the return of Rise mini to keep my Turtle-senses occupied.

[Ninjinister]

What will finish first: Shredder in Hell, or Doomsday Clock? :lol:

[MikeandRaph87]

What will finish first: Shredder in Hell, or Doomsday Clock? :lol:

There is no chance in Hell that Geoff will have Doomsday Clock ready first, how many times has he ran out the clock already? Its already a reality shattering contradiction in the pages of Justice League with Perpetua that makes Doomsday not exactly fall in line with Year of The Villain.

[Igglet]

I think Doomsday Clock is secretly really meta because by the time it's over, we'll all be dead.

[CyberCubed]

I'd say the long wait between releases killed enthusiasm for this mini-series, which is too bad because most of it is good so far. But yeah, the "hype" is pretty much dead for it. Most have forgotten it's still going on, I don't know what went wrong behind the scenes for it to be delayed so much.

[Igglet]

I can't tell if we're back to talking about Shredder in Hell or if that was about Doomsday Clock again.

[funatic]

Most have forgotten it's still going on, I don't know what went wrong behind the scenes for it to be delayed so much.

I think Mateus is just a meticulous artist, especially when he has the majority of creative control like with this mini. I often ask for little head/torso sketches of characters from TMNT artists at cons. Most graciously take a few minutes and give me a quick solid sketch, but the last time I asked Mateus he really took his time... super detailed and thought out. Even after his signing was officially over and we were forced to leave the table he just sat down on the con floor with me and continued to sketch away, working every last bit of perfection into it, all for a little request just for me. This is just that case on a grand scale.

Sure his work takes a long time to come out, but it never fails to blow us away!

[hypered1]

From what I've seen both issues 4 and 5 and listed for release on the same day (August 28th), has actually been confirmed by anyone properly?:ohwell:

[ProphetofGanja]

Damn for some reason I thought Shredder in Hell #4 came out today. Oh well

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

What is even causing the massive delay? I don't remember Santolouco having these problems on Vengeance. Is he simply more in demand these days?

[Shred87]

Hey fellas, general question about this series...i typically like to wait until it is completely out and then binge it....am i missing out? Is this series worth breaking my rule??

[Sabacooza]

What is even causing the massive delay? I don't remember Santolouco having these problems on Vengeance. Is he simply more in demand these days?Is he maybe also working on issue 100 at the same time? That's a thought.

[AquaParade]

What is even causing the massive delay? I don't remember Santolouco having these problems on Vengeance. Is he simply more in demand these days?

Definitely makes me curious. Although, once you open it up to the fact that it could potentially be personal/family/health issues, the possibilities expand tenfold. Hope it's just a lot of work on his plate.

[Bobby Curnow]

Mateus may be working something else i'm not aware of, but it seems that he's just working on Shredder.

Keep in mind Mateus is doing everything on this, including script and color, so that's going to take longer than if he was just doing pencil/ink like on the ongoing. (Plus, i'd say that his pages in Shredder are more ambitious/difficult than anything he's done in the ongoing)

That being said, I think he'd be the first to say that he's taking longer than anticipated.

BUT #4 was approved to print last week, so you should be seeing it before August is through.

Anyone frustrated by the delays has a right to be, I would too. But i'm hoping the end product will be worth the wait.

[Igglet]

Thanks for being frank with us and communicating, Bobby. It's greatly appreciated.

[Utrommaniac]

If it's taking this much time and dedication, it's absolutely worth the wait.

I know it's not going to happen, but I would be so thrilled if the series ended with Saki nobly staying dead and dragging the Dragon into not-coming-backness with him, completely throwing a spanner into the works with all the Pantheon stuff.

Given that the dragon appears on issue 100 that is unlikely and anti climatic.
